Johanns holding town halls across the state

U.S. Republican Senator Mike Johanns is making his way across the state to hear concerns from residents before he heads back to Washingtion.

“There is no subtitute for coming out here and saying to people what is on your mind. You saw today there was never an absence of hands up in the air, people wanting to say something or ask a question about an issue that was and is very important to them.”

His first two stops were in Lincoln and Omaha. Johanns says many of the residents are concerned about the deficit and the economy.
